The pursuit happened about 3:30 p.m. Tuesday (Jan. 17) near southeast 11th and J Streets. An officer tried to stop a silver Cadillac with three men inside because the license plate on the car had been reported stolen, according to police.

Clark, 40, of Bentonville, who was subsequently arrested and faces felony charges of manufacturing a controlled substance, second-degree forgery, possession of a firearm by a certain person, criminal use of a prohibited weapon and revocation of a suspended sentence, as well as two counts of misdemeanor second-degree endangerment of the welfare of a minor, according to the Benton County Jail.
